I haven't used the marker long enough to know how the weather will affect the marker paint, but was happy to find something to label flowers with the names of people the flowers are dedicated to. Will label or decorate with the marker in addition to that. Just wish it came in other colors!

Label containers so when plants are dormant I know the colors. The paint does not ever ever wear or bleach off. Which is great. I have used this on labels on plants placed inside in the winter and outside in the summer for at least 4 years with no fading.

I use this pen to mark your metal labels. While the ink is certainly permanent (rain and sun do not fade the writing and I am using stakes again this summer that I made last year) the ink does not dispense smoothly from the pen. The tip needs "pumping" to get the ink to flow, but once it flows it is likely to come out in a smudgy burst. While I have not found a suitable replacement for this item I would caution others to be ready for a gush of ink.

I was not sure how I would like this paint pen. Was very surprised it was everything the description says. I found it very easy to use and quick drying and just the right amount comes out. I did practice to make sure I had that hang of using the paint pen before I used it on my plant marker.

This marker bleeds and makes it difficult to read what you wrote on the marker.

Bottom LineNo, I would not recommend this to a friend
